IELTS Sample essays (IELTS Writing Task 2)

The Writing Task 2 of the
IELTS test requires you to write at least 250 words. You will be presented
with a topic and will be tested on your ability to respond by giving and justifying
an opinion, discussing the topic, summarizing details, outlining problems, identifying
possible solutions and supporting what you write with reasons, arguments and relevant
examples from your own knowledge or experience.

The assessment of Task 2 carries more weight in marking than Task 1. Writing scripts
are marked by trained and certificated IELTS examiners, who all hold relevant teaching
qualifications and are recruited as examiners by the test centres and approved by
British Council or IDP: IELTS Australia.
